1、 Acid or alkali

Gardenia is a plant that likes acidic environment. Only when the growth environment remains acidic can Gardenia grow vigorously and the amount of flowering can be guaranteed. During maintenance, it is necessary to provide acidic soil. When mixing soil, you can add a little retted pine sawdust. It is best to use rainwater for watering, so as to maintain acidity. You can also add a little vinegar, ferrous sulfate, citric acid, etc. to tap water

Gardenia is difficult to grow normally in alkaline environment, which will lead to yellow leaves, weak growth, unable to bloom normally, and even death. Especially in the north, because the water and soil are alkaline, attention should be paid to creating an acidic growth environment for plants during maintenance

2、 Can I get some sun

Gardenia can bask in the sun. It is a plant that likes plenty of sunshine. Only by ensuring sufficient light can it synthesize nutrients through photosynthesis. The light intensity in different seasons is different, so it should be different. The spring and autumn season is in a period of rapid growth. It needs to be given sufficient light and placed in a place with bright light to ensure good sunshine in summer. However, because the light is too strong, it cannot be exposed to the sun. In winter, it should be placed in a place with strong light and be exposed to the sun more
